His path to the DB is wrong somewhere. Why is the error returning a space between output and then the page that is erroring has no space between output?
 
Permissions on the database correct? remember it'll have to be ASP user and IIS user that needs propper permissions not just him.

Im guessing thats a mapped drive? 'e' ? if so has he got it mapped to the same letter?
